[color=#444444][font=Georgia, Utopia,]Perhaps the first photos of a [/font][/color][b]BrahMos [/b][color=#444444][font=Georgia, Utopia,]integrated on one of two IAF [/font][/color][b]Su-30 MKI[/b][color=#444444][font=Georgia, Utopia,]s earmarked to test the air-launched variant of the supersonic cruise missile. I found these pictures in the new BrahMos calendar. While carriage tests and integration tests have been carried out, a first test-firing is unlikely to happen before the end of this year. Development and integration of the air-launched version has been delayed owing to major modifications for the new role, which has included challenges in addressing aerodynamic stability and flame sustenance. In fact in 2007, the Su-30MKI as a platform [/font][/color][url="http://livefist.blogspot.com/2007/09/livefist-exclusive-brahmos-on-su-30mki.html"]was briefly dropped[/url][color=#444444][font=Georgia, Utopia,] from plans owing to the prospect of major time overruns if the team went ahead with reducing the BrahMos's bore diameter. It was a time when the Sukhoi Design Bureau had put its price up and had accorded low priority to the task. All that's behind the team now as it lays the groundwork for a test firing, hopefully this year.[/font][/color]

ante ga mari ground version requires more fuel for lift off.. so bigger size.. deeniki vasaram ledu kada.
